Major Barriers

Since I have began working in Wilson County, the tornado of 2020, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic have been major barriers to getting more involved. As the pandemic begin to wind down, I am eager to get more involved in the community.

Community Challenge / Issue / Goal

Due to my limited access thus far in the community, I have not experienced any particular challenges, issues, or problems that I feel is critical to the Wilson County area. I have had very positive experiences with the community leaders I have been in contact with. Each experience I have had has been positive and I have felt each time that I am just one small part of a greater good. In particular, Mayor Hutto's office and Mayor Hutto were very gracious in helping us to celebrate National Disability Employment Awareness Month this past October, by proclaiming that October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month in Wilson County. This helped us to help educate our Community about the importance of employing people with disabilities. This is just one example of the feeling of inclusion and togetherness that I have felt in Wilson County.

When challenges, issues or problems are identified in Wilson County, I would appreciate and value the opportunity to be involved in Leadership Wilson to help solve those issues.
